ous building, planned, by the best architectu
ral talent, and erected in the most substantial
manner, is now nearly ready for the reception

tees have spared neither pains nor expense to
meet the demands of utility and beauty in the
construction of the edeficc.

College. Cabinets of Minerals, Fossils and
Curiosities have also been provided. Stated

designed to give notice of the approaching

operation with the Faculty, will use all proper
and possible means to render the Institution

The remaining officers of the Faculty will lie

THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW (Liberal).
BLACKWOOD S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE (Tory).
(|MIE great and important events —Religious, Political,
1 and Military—now agitating thonations of the Old
World, give to those Publications an interest and value
they never before possessed. Thpy occupy a middle
ground between tlie hastily written news items, crude
speculations, and Hying rumors of the newspaper, and
the ponderous Tome of the historian, written long after
tlie living interest in tlie facts lie records shall have
passed away. The progress of tin- War in the East occu
pies a large space in their pages. Every movement is
closely criticised, whether of friend or of foe, and all
short-comings fearlessly pointed out. The letters lroui
the Crimea ami from tlie Baltic in Blackwood’s Magazine,
from two of its most popular contributors, give a more
intelligible mid reliable account of the movements of the
great belligerents that can elsewhere be found.
Those Periodicals ably represent tlie three great poltti
cal parties of Great Britain—Whig. Tory, and Radical,—
but politics forms only one feature of their character.—
As Organs of tlie most profound w riters on Science, Lite
rature, Morality, and Keligion, they stand, as they ever
have stood, unrivalled in the world of letters, being con
sidered indispensable to the scholar and the professional
man, while to the intelligent render of eveiy class they
furnish a more correct and satisfactory record of the cui
rent literature of the day, throughout the world, than
can tie possibly obtained from any other source.
